The values increase with the latitude (distance from the generator). Neither the inner arc length of the inner tiles nor the building size seem to be constant.When placed in a half circle on ring 4 or 8, snowpits can divide the half circle into 3 sections giving you 1/6th circle sections. In rings 3, 7 and 11 they can be used to create perfect quarters. The snowpit is a no-cost building that can be unlocked relatively early if you are willing to invest in those laws.Repeating the same process in succession might not give the same result. The one step out method is a lot more time consuming and very wonky. A lot of space can be gained by creating perfect quarter and one sixth circle sections with minimum effort. 3x2 buildings are usually very close to their minimum size while 3x3 and 5x3 buildings are not.The take aways are listed in the spreadsheet but I'll list them here: Hope it is interesting to you and useful if you want to create that perfect base and/or squeeze in as many buildings as will fit! It also concludes the calculations for fuel efficiency (generator range vs more steam hubs) and some analysis on tile side arc length and building sizes. From what I have observed the building size is affected by all of the available space up until the next obstacle. Perhaps I have interpreted his words wrong, but I do not think this is true. I think Crystal Dazz mentions in his videos that the building sizes are affected roughly 70 deg away from where you're building. Four quarter sections will only allow you to place 28 houses however! If you split the circle exactly in half, you will be able to place 30 houses.

If you build them in a full circle you will be able to place 29 houses. Lets say you are building houses on ring 6. Houses (colors are explained in the spreadsheet). Here are the values for House sized buildings (3x2): Crystal Dazz shows one technique to achieve this and while it has it's uses, I have found it to be hard to remember all of the configurations, a lot of work to place just 1 or 2 buildings and inconsistent at times. Using the collected data, it is possible to create a perfect Steam Hub layout:Īpart from perfectly placing buildings that have a coverage area, you can also use the sectioning to squeeze more buildings in than you normally would. This was repeated for rings 2 to 11 (12 for houses). I have experimentally determined how many buildings Frostpunk will place inside a full, a half, a quarter and a sixth of a circle. The videos Crystal Dazz made about building shrinking (check out his 50 tips too) inspired me to look into the mechanics of building sizes a little more.
